If You Were A Fruit Tree
I've been in the company of strangers who became friends almost immediately; friends who were busy and a little lost. Like me, they were out looking to discover what kind of fruit trees they were. Now, I'm here to remind you that sometimes we need to sublimate our fears and go out looking for unfamiliar things in order to find ourselves.
